The base-install doesn't include a lot of things I would consider |
| 29 |
essential on most systems ( log daemon, cron, mta ) yet those are not in |
| 30 |
system. That is the primary reason why we have a handbook and ask that |
| 31 |
people both read and follow it. If it's generally agreed that something |
| 32 |
is important to a system it can always be added there as a suggestion |
| 33 |
for installation besides the more...obvious things. |
